On 26 January 2023 Defence Minister Alex Chalk MP gave a statement to the House of Commons on plans for the UK, the US and Germany to send tanks to Ukraine. I asked a question to the Minister: 'Does the Minister agree that we should strongly support the comments of the Secretary-General of NATO when he says that this is an important time to end the Russian tyranny and to remind people that Ukrainians are the victims? They did not ask to be invaded and we should support them until the end.'
